Yesterday marked 1 year since we moved into our home.

The inside has the biggest changes but I'm sharing the outside right now.

We're in a cul-de-sac, Erik has his oversized 2 car garage, I have a huge dining room for entertaining, and the sq ft is double from where we came from.

Couldn't be happier!

I spent 1 week doing half of my kitchen. I'm sharing the progress pictures. We still have to replace the floor, counters...

We have done a lot of work over the years in our previous home. Now I'm getting fed up with our kitchen in the new house. Yeah it hasn't been even a year, but still. I know what I want to do it but that would be down the road. In the meantime, I'm looking to just give a updated look. Freshener up a bit.

I did furniture makeovers, upcycled them etc. for 8 years. I don't need advise on how to do the kitchen cabinets, but I am looking to hear opinions on what you would do. I think I know what I will do for now but really look forward to hearing your thought. Why? Maybe you spark a new idea or I take your idea altogether hahaha.

Here's the deal, my colors are black, white and grey. The hardware I already purchased for the kitchen is black. The ceiling fans are black. They separated the kitchen with carpet on one side, I hate so we are making it one big consistent room.

GO!!

What would you do to this kitchen?!

Thank you for stopping by! This site was created to show the renovation progress and process as we redo our new home that we purchased 10 months ago. We are hopeful that you follow us and give advise and/or your opinion when we share. Please share our page with anyone you know that love DIY or home renovations.

See ya around!
